Indications for Use

The UroLift System is indicated for the treatment of symptoms due to urinary outflow obstruction secondary to benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), including lateral and median lobe hyperplasia, in men 45 years of age or older.

Device Story

UroLift ATC System is an implantable transprostatic tissue retractor system used to treat BPH-related urinary obstruction. The device is inserted through the penile orifice into the prostatic urethra. It delivers a permanent implant transversely through the prostate lobe to retract and hold the urethral tissue against the prostatic capsule. This mechanical displacement expands the urethral lumen, reducing obstruction and improving lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS). The procedure typically requires 2-6 implants. The ATC modification adds a wing component to the distal tip of the delivery device to provide a larger footprint for improved tissue mobilization. The system is used by physicians in a clinical setting. The device is single-use and consists of a delivery device pre-loaded with one implant.

Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. Testing included deployment, compatibility, and performance testing of the modified distal tip. Biocompatibility testing was conducted per ISO 10993-5, ISO 10993-10, and ISO 10993-11. Sterilization was validated to a 10^-6 Sterility Assurance Level (SAL) via gamma irradiation.

Technological Characteristics

Implantable transprostatic tissue retractor system. Consists of a single-use delivery device and pre-loaded implant. Modification includes a wing component on the distal tip for tissue mobilization. Biocompatibility per ISO 10993-1. Sterilization via gamma irradiation to 10^-6 SAL. Mechanical principle of operation; no software or electronic components.

Indications for Use

Indicated for men 45+ with urinary outflow obstruction secondary to BPH (lateral/median lobe hyperplasia). Contraindicated for prostate volume >100cc, UTI, urethral conditions preventing insertion, urinary incontinence due to incompetent sphincter, or current gross hematuria.

The primary difference is the addition of a wing component on the distal tip of the UL400 which provides a larger footprint. This design feature is intended to provide better mobilization of tissue when performing the UroLift System procedure. The UroLift System (both the UL400 and UroLift ATC) is designed to access the prostatic urethra and deliver one UroLift Implant through a lobe of the prostate. The UroLift System is inserted into the urethra through the penile orifice and used to displace the urethra toward the prostatic capsule. The UroLift Implant is then deployed transversely through the prostatic tissue. Multiple implants are deployed in the UroLift System procedure. The implants secure the retracted position of the urethra, thereby maintaining an expanded urethral lumen, reducing fluid obstruction and improving lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS). This is accomplished by holding the approximated position of the inner (urethral) tissue and the outer (capsular) tissue of the prostate with Image /page/3/Picture/14 description: The image shows the logos of two companies, "neotract" and "Teleflex". The "neotract" logo is on the left, and the "Teleflex" logo is on the right. Underneath the logos, the text "INTERVENTIONAL UROLOGY" is written in a smaller font. The logos are in blue and black. {4}------------------------------------------------ the UroLift Implant. The procedure typically requires 2-6 implants to retract the obstruction. The UroLift System consists of two main components, the UroLift Delivery Device (single use), and the UroLift Implants (one implant per delivery device). Each Delivery Device comes pre-loaded with one UroLift Implant. ## INTENDED USE The UroLift System is indicated for the treatment of symptoms due to urinary outflow obstruction secondary to benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), including lateral and median lobe hyperplasia, in men 45 years of age or older. ## CONTRAINDICATIONS The UroLift System should not be used if the patient has: - Prostate volume of >100 cc . - . A urinary tract infection - Urethra conditions that may prevent insertion of delivery system into bladder - Urinary incontinence due to incompetent sphincter - . Current gross hematuria ## PREDICATE DEVICE The predicate device is the UroLift UL400 System from NeoTract (K193269). | Trade Name: | UroLift® UL400 System | |-----------------------|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | Common Name: | Implantable Transprostatic Tissue Retractor System | | Regulation Name: | Implantable Transprostatic Tissue Retractor System | | Product Code: | PEW | | Regulation Number: | 876.5530 | | Classification: | II | | Classification Panel: | Reproductive, Gastro-Renal, Urological, General Hospital<br>Device and Human Factors (OHT3)<br>Reproductive and Urology Devices (DHT3B) | ## COMPARISON WITH THE PREDICATE DEVICE The UroLift ATC System device is based on the UL400 UroLift System platform cleared in K193269. The UroLift ATC System device leverages the same platform design as the UL400 UroLift system and includes a modification to the distal tip, giving the tip a larger footprint during the procedure and allowing for effective mobilization of tissue when needed. The remainder of the device is substantially equivalent to the UL400. The implant components, including the materials, specifications and methods of manufacture are unchanged relative to the predicate device. The delivery system mechanism of action is unchanged. ## PERFORMANCE TESTING The design requirements for the UroLift System were reviewed and non-clinical design verification testing was required to assure that the modifications of the proposed device did not impact the safe and effective use of the device. Non-clinical testing included deployment testing, compatibility with accessories, and implant, shaft, and wing performance testing. The testing was performed on devices which had undergone worst case sterilization, accelerated aging, and transit testing. The majority of the test Image /page/4/Picture/20 description: The image features the logos of "NeoTract" and "Teleflex" side by side, indicating a partnership or affiliation between the two companies. Below the logos, the text "INTERVENTIONAL UROLOGY" is displayed, suggesting that both companies are involved in the field of interventional urology. The logos and text are presented in a clean and professional manner, with a focus on clarity and readability. {5}------------------------------------------------ UroLift® Advanced Tissue Control (ATC®) System methods were equivalent to the testing for the 510(k) cleared UroLift UL400 System (K193269), and all acceptance criteria were met. ## BIOCOMPATIBILITY TESTING The UroLift ATC System has been tested for biocompatibility and passed the relevant tests according to ISO 10993-1: Biological evaluation of medical devices - Part 1: Evaluation and testing within a risk management process. The modification addressed in this 510(k) submission do introduce new materials and, therefore additional biocompatibility testing was performed. Biocompatibility testing was performed on worst case sterilized devices and included: - Cytotoxicity testing per ISO 10993-5:2009 Biological evaluation of medical ● devices Part 5: Tests for in vitro cytotoxicity - . Sensitization and Intracutaneous Reactivity testing per ISO 10993-10:2010 -Biological evaluation of medical devices Part 10: Tests for irritation and skin sensitization - Material Mediated Pyrogenicity and Acute Systemic Toxicity per ISO 10993-. 11:2017 – Biological Evaluation of Medical Devices Part 11: Tests for Systemic Toxicity # STERILIZATION AND SHELF LIFE TESTING The UroLift ATC System has been validated to determine the minimum gamma irradiation dose to ensure a 106 Sterility Assurance Level (SAL). The modification addressed in the 510(k) submission may impact the product sterility because the modified component utilizes new materials and adds some geometric complexity to the device. These materials are manufactured, processed, and handled similarly to the predicate UroLift device. ## CONCLUSION The testing demonstrated the NeoTract UroLift ATC System is as safe and effective, has the same intended use, technological characteristics and principles of operation as the predicate device. Therefore, the NeoTract UroLift ATC System is substantially equivalent to the UroLift UL400 System.
